CAS 5379-19-1

1-(2,4-Dimethylphenyl)ethanol

Description:

1-(2,4-Dimethylphenyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 5379-19-1, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and alcohol functional group. It features a phenyl ring substituted with two methyl groups at the 2 and 4 positions, which contributes to its hydrophobic nature and influences its physical properties. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. The presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group imparts moderate polarity, allowing for potential hydrogen bonding interactions. 1-(2,4-Dimethylphenyl)ethanol is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. Its reactivity can include typical alcohol reactions, such as oxidation to ketones or aldehydes, and it may also participate in substitution reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
